Rockman Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 (edited) Has anyone got the Heatsink CNCed backings with pads which are £25 ? are they any good ? whats the wear life like on them ? or could someone recommend decent pads for a light grind which will be good in dry and wet conditions. Thanks Shane EDIT: awwww poop posted in new members chat by mistake Edited December 7, 2010 by Rockman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dann2707 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 I found them very temperamental, at first they were quite bitey but just lost it completely. Pay an extra £5, get TNN LGM's and never look back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pogo Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 They work, but aren't fantastic, depends on your setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronz Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Mime are phenomenal. CNC backings, smooth rim, tiny bit of tar. Make sure the pads are set square, though. I found this to be doubly important with my HSs. Wear rate is sloooooow. Hardly noticed mine going down in the 6—7 months I've had them. Better than my green and blue rock pads by a long way!

Any pads will be amazing with tar and again, any pads will wear stupidly slow on a smooth rim. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phatmike Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 I've only ever heard great things about Phats in the wet. There's quite a bit around the forum if you search, certainly worth considering if you want the ultimate all-rounder pad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzaskull Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I ran the heatsink yellows for a while, i thought they were disappointing, they had no sound or hold Then I got some Rockpads, there only £5 more than the heatsink's and are the best pads I've run so far!
